Guest juliebean Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 for me it's #1 confessions it had the best dance song and she looked amazing #2 rol the songs are amazing and I loved her hair and style
Kurt420 Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 I love ROL but...hands down LAP is THE classic Madonna masterpiece. ROL is innovative, creative and heartfelt but LAP has the breathtaking variety and artistic ambition with confessional and poetic songs like PTT and Oh Father, the haunting and brutally honest TDDUP and experimentation and breadth with Dear Jessie, Love Song and Act of Contrition. Oh, and the singles were probably the most varied and amazing of her entire career. LAP is Madonna at her creative zenith! LAP sounds more timeless. Songs like PTT, EY and OF sound like they could be from just about any time period. All ROL songs (except maybe MG) sound like they are from 1998.......and that is not a diss in any way. I honestly prefer ROL to LAP but that doesn't change the fact that it does sound more like a product of its time.....as do most of her albums.
Jairo Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Her best album ever. COADF is my personal FAV, but ROL is a masterpiece.
Guest Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Honestly. How do some of you wake up in the morning and call yourselves Madonna fans? Some of you are the Republicans of Madonna fans - you shit all over everything and say the stupidest things.

Chimera Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 ROL in fuckt could be her best album, but so could LAP,TB,Erotica, BS,AL,COAD,Music,RH...and even the others have some wonderful music as well...so don't u all bitches just love how great music she's made in her whole career? I DO!
ULIZOS Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 It's not my favorite M album but it's absolutely perfect in every possible way.
mad4mad2 Posted June 28, 2015 Author Posted June 28, 2015 Like a preyers Ray of Lighters Confessioners Rebel hearters Pick your team lol
Guest Ivy Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Why do I always see people dissing The Power Of Goodbye? I thought it was a fan favorite? Gorgeous melody. Not to rain on POG's parade but as MadMark explains it best as a "nice" song. Similar to Miles Away and Ghosttown it is just a middle of the road midtempo song that goes absolutely nowhere. I love my Madonna either uptempo dancey like Ray Of Light (single) and Bitch Im Madonna or ballady like x-static process and falling free. Anyhoo ROL equals Madonna's 5th best album (possibly 6th as I am liking Rebel Heart more and more )
Foxcatcher Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Has to Be is the best bonus track ever. Amen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYV8jg2B-DE
Guest bluejean Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 It's her best album. But in saying that it's only one specific aspect of her. It's not necessarily my favourite aspect of her but I think in terms of quality of music, lyrics, thematically and cohesiveness Ray of Light is her her best. And I'm sure she probably agrees. Why? Because she was just in a certain head space. Just so inspired and in the right creative space with the perfect collaborators for that moment time. That album is such an inspiring piece of work and I think it's a reflection of a certain phase people go through in life that won't ever be repeated.
Ciccone's Cheeks Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Well, a matter of opinion but not my favourite Madonna album ever - although I still love it. Me either. See why many fans adore it but I'm not one of them.
Guest bluejean Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 The Power of Good-bye is a masterpiece and one of Madonna's best songs.
mad4mad2 Posted June 28, 2015 Author Posted June 28, 2015 The Power of Good-bye is a masterpiece and one of Madonna's best songs. Thank you!
Apples388 Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 I let down my guard I fell into your arms Forgot who I was I didn't hear the alarms Now I'm down on my knees Alone in the dark I was blind to your games You fired a shot in my heart ( Waoh )
karbatal Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Can we change the title of this thread to Stupidity?
luluthecat Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 I never understand people who say ROL sounds dated? Sounds timeless to me. I find William's production to be pretty unique to him. Same with Mirwais. The only album I sometimes find sounding "dated" is Bedtime Stories, but only on Don't Stop and Take A Bow. When I was younger I used to think Bedtime Story was sooooo dated but then I as got older I stated to love 90s house and trip hop.

When I was younger I used to think Bedtime Story was sooooo dated but then I as got older I stated to love 90s house and trip hop. Both ROL and BS sound like a product of their time. I don't understand why that's perceived as some sort of insult. Madonna is a dance/pop artist and that style of music evolves so quickly, it's not unique to Madonna. Even certain aspects of MDNA sound "dated" at this point (the little "dubstep breakdowns" come to mind).
Kurt420 Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Y'all know the first album is the best. I wouldn't disagree with that! "Madonna" is by far her most influential album......that and LAV helped define the modern day female pop star.
tasteinmen Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 I've always struggled with ROL, loved all the singles and Skin, but Ashanti gets a skip from me. The album has grown on me over time but it's not often I put it on. NRM is probably my favourite from the album.
lrnzi Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Someone said True Blue has some of her most iconic songs and I agree. ROL was so creative and inspired and had some of her most gorgeous and ethereal music ever.
erotica blu Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Best album? Did somebody say "Erotica"...? The best of the cohesive concept albums in her career.
